There are several ways to accomplish this that I can think of trying without having the ability to tray at the moment.

1. Add a frame layout to main activity indicate the layout
2. Add another activity and have that hold the layout. Then have a shared preferences that hold a flag that you will check if set, if not set on first run. check at app startup if flag is set in shares preferences
3. For out a way to put disclaimer in a dialog box
